Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنِي مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ، عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ خَثْعَمٍ اسْتَفْتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَالْفَضْلُ رَدِيفُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ فَرِيضَةَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي الْحَجِّ عَلَى عِبَادِهِ أَدْرَكَتْ أَبِي شَيْخًا كَبِيرًا لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ عَلَى الرَّاحِلَةِ فَهَلْ يُجْزِئُ قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ فَهَلْ يَقْضِي - أَنْ أَحُجَّ عَنْهُ فَقَالَ لَهَا ‏"‏ نَعَمْ ‏" ‏‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ فَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ مَا ذَكَرَ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ‏.‏

Translation

It was narrated from Sulaiman bin Yasar that Ibn Abbas told him: A woman from Khath'am asked the Messenger of Allah a question while Al-Fadl was riding behind him. She said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, Allah’s obligation of Hajj has come due, but my father is an elderly man who cannot sit upright on a mount. Would it suffice for me to perform Hajj on his behalf?’ Mahmud’s version has: ‘Would it discharge his duty if I perform Hajj on his behalf?’ He replied, ‘Yes.’ Abu Abd al-Rahman said: More than one narrator transmitted this report from al-Zuhri without including the wording that al-Walid bin Muslim reported.

Translation notes
  • The source preserves a wording variant attributed to Mahmud, followed by an editorial note comparing al-Walid bin Muslim's transmission with other transmitters from al-Zuhri.
